Hvordan ivaretas hensynet til naturmangfold i bit-for-bit nedbyggingen av strandsonen : et casestudie av hvordan miljøprinsippene i naturmangfoldloven (§§ 8–10), begrunnes i dispensasjonsvedtak i strandsonen i Mandal kommune
(Master thesis, 2021)Arealendring er den viktigste årsaken til at arter er på rødlisten. I dag er ni av ti arter truet på grunn av arealendringer. Sjøfugl har størst nedgang blant arter i marine økosystemer. Det har siden 1965 vært byggeforbud ... -
Testing a new methodology for measuring aggregate stability
(Master thesis, 2021)Soil aggregate stability is an important measure of a soils’ physical and structural condition. Good aggregate stability is paramount in order to sustain crop productivity, limit soil erosion and promote healthy and ... -
Simulering av avrenning fra grønne tak med magasinerende sjikt
(Master thesis, 2021)Vann er livsviktig for mennesker. Likevel kan vann i stor hastighet og stor mengde gjøre mye skade, og i verste fall koste liv. Urbanisering og endringer i nedbørsfelt gjør at overvann må tas hensyn til i planleggingen av ... -
Waste-based sorbents for reducing the mobility and leaching of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in contaminated soil
(Master thesis, 2021)Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a diverse group of anthropogenic, organic chemicals whose widespread use have caused contamination issues worldwide. Former use of PFAS-containing firefighting foams have ... -
Ophiostomatoid fungi associated with bark beetles infesting broadleaved trees in Norway
(Master thesis, 2017)The diversity of ophiostomatoid fungi associated with coniferous trees in Europe is quite well known. However, far less is known about the species associated with broadleaved trees. This study investigated the diversity ... -
Transfer of river-discharged Cs-137 in estuaries : a case study from Vefsna river and the Vefsnfjord in Nordland, Norway
(Master thesis, 2021)Several decades after the Chernobyl accident, it is still detectable activities of Cs-137 in the environment. Norway was highly affected by radioactive fallout, where one of the locations that received the highest doses ... -
Speciation and source identification of radiocesium by radiochemical separation and QQQ-ICP-MS analysis
